Heat a clean, dry 10-inch pan over medium heat until thoroughly hot. Add pumpkin seeds in one even layer, spreading them out to avoid overcrowding. Toast, in batches if needed, tossing pepitas occasionally, until evenly golden brown and slightly fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes total. Repeat with remaining seeds.
